The situation in the Middle East seems to be ratcheting up, according to the news here. Did I hear somewhere that Parliament has been recalled from summer recess? Are there mile long queues at the filling stations? I think oil supplies here come from Canada and the Gulf, certainly no one seems to be worrying about the Suez Canal closing. However, old habits die hard, I jumped in the car and filled up - all two and a half gallons. The price seems to be escalating though, I paid $3.46 a gallon. It was $3.16 a little while ago.
I went water walking mid morning. There is a nice little patio off the pool area, where I took my C-Nook and thermos, and drip dried. As you can see, it was very, very bright.
This is the walkway, or Lazy River. There was only me there, ideal if you're wanting peace and quiet. To watch the sunset though I put up with the children splashing a bit.
As well as bright, it is very hot too, but that's not news.
Afterwards I picked up the flowers from Emmanuel, took them to the hospital to put in the chapel, and had some lunch there.
This evening Bruce and Rosalyn invited me to the movies, and we saw Jobs (as in Steve Jobs). It was interesting but complicated, I looked up his biography online when I got home and got a better grasp of it.
